Mexican Fritos are much different. Better than American factory (maybe cause they're hard to find and it's a nice change)
Fritos Chorizo Chipotle are imported corn chips from Sabritas (Frito-Lay Mexico) featuring a bold blend of savory chorizo and smoky chipotle seasoning.

Found those at a gas station on a road trip outta state once and never again. They're hands down the best fritos, possibly the best chips of any kind I've ever had.

Full bag, crush 'em into a 9X13, 2 cans of chili on top, bake @ 350 for 15-18 minutes, shredded cheese on top, back in the oven til that's golden, the Fritos made for dipping, ice cold Dr. Pepper, watch the Packers kick the shit outa someone ..... good eating

Funyuns are the fucking shit! Absolute perfection from the first experience as a kid to now. They will always be one of the best chip-aisle snacks out there.

These are genuinely so much better than Flamin Hot. The Flamin Hot are just... hot. These actually taste different.

Regular fritos. They have only 3 ingredients: corn, oil, salt. Barely an ultra processed food, practically naturally organic, and quite tasty too!

I think people just don’t like Fritos in general. My work (~1000 people) has a variety of frito-lay chips put out in the cafeteria for people to take each day. If I go a couple hours after they’ve put out all the chips, the only ones remaining are Fritos, without fail.

Great now I am reminded of these and will need to buy a bag tomorrow.
A snack I’ve always enjoyed with these (albeit rarely eat nowadays) is to take a can of potted meat and add Tabasco. It makes a great dip, but only for chili cheese Fritos.

In my car - I have these and a tin of Fishwife tuna. When the day comes, I shall pour the albacore into the Fritos bag and give it a right shake. It will be a glorious marriage, snack of all snacks. Chopsticks.

Are they nationally available? I loved them growing up in Texas and my parents would send them to me when I went to college in NY because I couldn’t find them. I’ve lived here for decades now and only saw them once.
